Created attachment 187273 [details] Document created with MS Word Description: While creating a right to left (RTL) paragraph, the automatic heading numbers are positioned incorrectly. They are positioned from start of the paragraph to the right, which is wrong. If you press left ctrl+left shift, you will see that the positioning will become correct, assuming that you want a left to right (LTR) paragraph. The visible symptom is the positioning of the numbers outside the margins, then a big blank space, and then the start of heading text. This is not limited to DOCX, and is also reproducible when saving the content as ODT files. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the attached .docx file 2. Look at the positioning of the -2-3-1 Actual Results: The automatic heading numbers fall out of the margins, as the calculation of the horizontal positioning is done incorrectly. It is measured from the right of the margin instead of left, for an RTL paragraph. Expected Results: The automatic heading numbers should fall inside the margins, and the calculation of the horizontal positioning should be done by measuring from the left side of the margin, for an RTL paragraph.

So, I have a few comments to make: 1. Hossein, I (we) would really appreciate it if you brought up these bugs on the RTL Telegram channel. If not for any other reason, then for asking whether we remember a possible dupe, or for asking us to confirm. 2. Is this bug only about documents imported from Word, or is it supposed to be more general, as the title and the first paragraph suggest? 3. The numbering style in the attached document, WWNum2, has level 3 aligned left and aligned at 0.0 . Why should it not be laid out in the margin area? (I am tempted to change this back to UNCONFIRMED, but maybe it's just me misunderstading things.)
